Or is there just not the will within government buildings to to make it that make the case? voice-verified

I do get the sense though voice-verified

As you say, he is an acolyte of of me Hall Martin, I do get the sense that he has the ear of the teaching and I do get the sense that he's quietly like I thought his f delivery voice-verified

from his first and second budget were very impressive. voice-verified

You know, quietly done. voice-verified

And I think also as well, unlike other ministers, voice-verified

He's relatively devoid of an ego. voice-verified

Like it's he doesn't really care if he gets bashed around or not, or like he's not a scream or a shout, or uh dare I say, punch in the table or, you know, uh pugnacious bruiser from allohyde or anything like that. voice-verified

But you know, but I do seem to think that he like my my view of him is that he just tends to do wants to get on with his business, does not looking for headlines necessarily, knows he probably has to do a bit of media to try and you know, 'cause he's a senior cabinet minister and has to sell what he's doing. voice-verified

But uh like it's quite refreshing from that side. voice-verified

Like, you know, he actually seems to want to just get stuff done. voice-verified

So we don't really think of competition in that space, like we don't like that that element of you know like 'cause like the developers, a large people will see, they've had it their own way for a long time now in a in a market where you know demand is way out out supply or outstripping supply. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

Yeah, voice-verified

Was there anything he he didn't say or was there anything that he said for you that left you a little bit, I don't agree with that, or do you think he gave like I I mean to me I thought he gave a good account of himself, but I mean I'm conscious I'm voice-verified

I'm picking up more on the politics of a running. voice-verified

But it it's interesting again, going back to him as an individual. voice-verified

Like you said, he he's come into this department, you know, having been a junior justice minister, relatively unknown, relatively low key, but he's clearly someone who's not perceived widely as having leadership ambitions. voice-verified

I wonder therefore is that is he freed from that? voice-verified

Like he you know, he's not minding his legacy n necessarily to the same degree that say someone uh kind of an error parent might be? voice-verified
